Gabby Hartnett, Lou Gehrig Bats

[Tightlines]

Hello,
First time poster here. I was recently given a few baseball bats by a friend of the family. I was just hoping maybe I could get a little bit of info on these. He told me they were possibly pretty valuable, but I haven't been able to find much info on the history or value of them. Any help would be appreciated!
Louisville slugger - Gabby Hartnett model
Zinn Beck - Lou Gehrig type
Louisville slugger - Nelson Fox

The Gabby has a great chance of being a gamer. It’s a beautiful bat — what’s the length and weight, and is there a number lightly stamped into the knob?

The Gehrig is a very desirable bat, but likely can’t be called a gamer. Same questions as above.

The Nellie Fox is a store bat.

Great acquisitions!

Thanks for the reply!
The length on both appears to be 34" weighing in at 37.5 oz
The Gabby model says 34 on the bottom and the Lou Gehrig bat looks like someone marked it with a B

That could also possibly be a # 8 on the Gehrig Bat's knob.

Unusual to see a number in marker on a bat that age. If there is no small 34 actually imprinted into the knob, the Hartnett is almost definitely a gamer and quite valuable.
The length and weight match his ordering records.

Thanks for the info! I believe these bats have just been sitting in a closet for ages. I need to get some more info on where he got them from.

What ever came of the Gehrig?

Thanks to all of you for your help and encouragement on how to handle these bats. I just wanted to pass on that the Hartnett is available in the upcoming platinum nights auction with Heritage. Here is a link if anyone is interested : https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c.../50029-80057.s
